I am a small private dealer with a love for small decorative items predominantly from the Georgian and Victorian periods each with their own beauty. A beauty that is not always expected. Below are some of my favourite finds and past sales from Etsy where I have been trading for the last 7 years.

Description
Each earring has a Cameo depicting Hebe who in Greek mythology is The Goddess of Eternal Youth, and child of Zeus & Hera, who in this depiction we see her offering up a cup of Ambrosia, the food and drink of the Gods to Zeus, God of Lighting & Thunder and Law & Order in the form of an Eagle. Each Cameo sits in an Oval Pinchbeck setting which has around the edge engraved the pattern of the Greek key. The two oval discs hang from a hook which at the bottom of each is a little pinchbeck ball, allowing a lovely movement to the earrings.
measurements
Length from Top of Hook to Bottom of Disc 1&1/2" / 4cm, Width At Widest Point of Oval Disc 3/4" 2cm
declaration
The Three MusCATeers has clarified that the 19th Century Cameo Earrings Depicting Hebe & Set in Pinchbeck (LA485580) is genuinely of the period declared with the date/period of manufacture being c.1850
condition
Both of the Cameos are in good condition, but there has at some point (I would imagine quite some time ago) been a repair to one of the earrings to the ring that holds the disc to the hook and ball as there can be seen on the back some old solder and this can best be seen in the ninth photo. Each of the Cameos appear to be in good condition which no chips or scratches that I can see.
